    7.5 R estate owner and i was wondering wether to get the 8.5 but I hate those stick on iPad style infotainment screens, it’s not a dash it’s a computer terminal (which of course it is) in my humble opinion they look horrible. There is no doubt that this will be a great machine to drive but the opportunities to use it to its full potential would be extremely rare. Black edition looks awesome but not sure if it will be available in the estate version. Leather would be a necessary upgrade as those bus seat pattern cloth seats are absolutely dreadful.

      @AutoSocialUK 23 часа назад

      What. A. Car - top choice!👌🏼 Yes, they have gotten quite OTT, luckily the screens are now much easier to use than when the 8 first came out but regardless they are ridiculously large! I’m not totally sure you can get a black edition Estate but you can certainly get the black pack which comes with a lot of it. ☺️

Honda isn’t immune to building some less than stellar cars either, I personally wouldn’t consider a civic type r against a golf r for one because looking at it after getting out of would have me scrambling for a barf bag and two the golf is a better all around car for all conditions. Bottom line is though if we all liked exactly the same thing it’d a bloody boring world and for the record yes, I’m a Volkswagen owner, we’ve run a Volkswagen as our only car since 2007 and done over 400,000km over three different cars and the only problem we had was a taillight bulb kept dropping out of it’s fitting on our Passat V6 CC which our local dealer fixed free of charge (car no longer under warranty) while I waited when I bought it up in conversation with the dealer. As for surveys they hold little weight with me because what they can count as a reliability issue can be very superficial issues rather than serious concerns so it’s muddy assessment at best. I will concede the if you strike an unreliable Volkswagen they tend to be a nightmare.
